Expansion Tank Replacement in New Britain, CT

Water expands when it heats, and the expansion tank gives it somewhere to go. When the tank's internal bladder fails, the tank fills with water and system pressure climbs every time the boiler fires.

The usual sign is a relief valve that drips or blows at 30 psi on a hot water boiler. Tap the tank: a healthy one sounds hollow at the top, a waterlogged one sounds solid all the way. Older steel compression tanks hung from the basement ceiling can waterlog too and need draining.

Reliable Boiler Service connects New Britain, CT homeowners with technicians who replace the tank, set the air charge to match the cold fill pressure (often around 12 psi), and check the pressure reducing valve while they are there. A tank charged wrong works almost as badly as a failed one.

Left alone, it wears out relief valves and stresses every joint in the system.

Expansion Tank Replacement FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Expansion Tank Replacement

Questions we hear most often about Expansion Tank Replacement in New Britain, CT.

Talk to a real person
Why is the relief valve on my boiler dripping?
A relief valve that drips or opens near 30 psi usually means a waterlogged expansion tank or a fill valve letting too much water in. Replacing the valve alone rarely fixes it.
Why are my radiators cold at the top?
Air is trapped in them. Bleed each radiator with a radiator key until water runs steadily, then check the boiler pressure and top it up if needed.
Can I convert my oil boiler to gas in New Britain, CT?
If gas service is available on your street, yes. The job includes a new boiler, a properly sized gas line, a vent or chimney liner, and removal or abandonment of the oil tank.
What should I do if my boiler is leaking?
Turn the boiler off, close the fill valve if water keeps spreading, and call (866) 456-6311. Note where the water is coming from, since that decides between a repair and a replacement.
Are there rebates for high-efficiency boilers?
Many gas utilities and state energy programs offer rebates on qualifying condensing boilers. Terms change often, so check your utility's current program before you buy.
